"I just saw the spider and pressed play on my camera and started filming," he explained.

The result was a video of Nick vs. the spider. The two-minute clip certainly has turned into Runyan's 15 minutes of fame.

"It was like that big," he said, using his hands to show how big the spider was. "I just saw it, and we made eye contact, and he gave me the 'I am going to wrap you up and eat you' so I had to take care of business," Runyan said.

In the process he also took care of the wall which didn't have a fist-sized hole in it yet too.

Runyan is the youngest of four boys, and while this wasn't the first hole in his family's house, it's definitely become the most famous.

"I didn't even feel it, it just went right through," he said.

Nick's a bit of a goofball, but he's just having fun.

"I was just looking for something that would be creative to take the spider out," he said.

And don't think this is the end of the story; a spider sequel could be coming to a computer screen near you.
